Does this run small? And, does it shrink? I'm 4'10" and 90 lbs. If I order the Size 1, will I be OK? My last size 1 (different manufacturer) shrunk to a children's size

It seems to run big, because I ordered the 0 for my 4 year thinking it was going to be just right but I had to take it in by 4 folds. Oddly enough the waistline is just right but everything else is too big. Hope this helps.

This kind runs tall and skinny, but I am a much larger girl. It did not shrink as bad as the heavy ones do. I would still never put it in the dryer, just hang dry.

I can attest that the ProForce sizing chart was 100% accurate. This was my original review: 5.0 out of 5 stars Careful of the sizing, April 1, 2013 By Donna Anderson - See all my reviews Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: ProForce 5oz. Ultra Lightweight Student Uniform (Misc.) Even though sizing is supposed to be standard, I've had trouble finding a size for my son. Seems the 00 size I want is huge from some places. The size 00 from ProForce that I ordered fit perfect for my son..and matched the ProForce sizing chart EXACTLY. I had ordered a size 00 through the studio we go to and it was huge! Not sure why there was such a large difference in size. Anyways, just wanted to comment that the ProForce size chart was completely accurate and the gi fit awesome.

It might be too small. I bought it for my son when he was 2. He is 4 now it it's snug. My son is very tall and average weight.

I dry at normal temperature (in my weekly loads of baby clothes) and never had shrinking issues. I think the waterproof backing on it keeps it from shrinking. We have two and they have lasted over a year for us so far with normal washing!!

You definitely want it tighter than loose so the baby fits snugly. I'm not sure what size would be best for you. I'm 5'9" and wear a size 14 or XL in shirts/dresses and the large was too big and didn't shrink in multiple hot water washes. I did have the organic version so I don't know if that matters with the size (I don't think it should). Maybe if you call the company they would help more. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

It doesn't shrink, the fabric is kind of plastic. I've washed it 2 times and it has the same size.

well this is Linda and I am 5'5 and weigh 120lbs and wear a size x small in tops and size 2 in most jeans in womens and I bought a large and it fits perfect. I was afraid it would be too big but it runs small. So with your size I would think and xsmall who fit good. I have 5 inches on you and 17 more lbs so I think you might want to try a small. The large looks like a small to me. I was surprised when I saw how small it looked. I might be confusing you but I would think xsmall would work but if you wash it as I did and I put it in the dryer by mistake it shrunk. so go with the small and if it is too big wash and dry it.

For me, it seemed to run true to size, but I only tried one. They're stretchable, spandex or such, but if you're at all squeamish about sizing you may want to order the next size up. Larger is probably better than smaller. (Just my opinion; not sure on that.) Hopefully that helps!

Hi Howard, I would think a Large would work because it does shrink a bit, I wear xlarge 511 225 lbs, so as far as i know when i have ordered 5 now in total they ship large to me which is supposedly an XL. Good luck they are a nice comfortable shirt!

Its a little big. It seems to have extra material i washed it a few times hoping to shrink it however it did not. I hope this helps

After washing and drying, I didn't notice any shrinking at all. The mattress I have it on is a full size with a mattress topper and it fits great! I was thinking about buying a queen for the full but that would have been far too much fabric!

I went by the cart and ordered a medium but after a few days it stretched out. I probably should have gotten the small. If you wash it often it shrinks back to normal for a little while. I hope this was helpful

In my experience, it hasn't shrunk at all. I usually line dry it, but it snuck into th dryer once or twice and was fine. Hope that helps!

No, this shirt does not shrink when laundered. I wish I would have bought a couple more of these shirts, they keep me warm, I cant wait to use them in the woods for deer hunting.

I wish I knew how to shrink mine. I've tried hot water but nothing seems to work. That's certainly a sign of a quality made garment when it can hold up to hot water and the dryer. I'll begin purchasing a smaller size in the future.

The cover is actually not pre shrunk, but as long as you use cold water and low heat dryer then it won't shrink. It also over cut as its 92 inches long not 90 so in case it shrink.

It will depend on how you like your gi to fit. I personally like mine a bit looser and I know others that like it snug. I personally haven't dryed mine for the fact of it shrinking as others say they shrink quite a bit. So I would either not dry it or buy an extra size bigger than you think...hope that helps!! Good luck

Hey bigman, I would recommend a Fuji Gi, they are only a little more money than this Gi and will not shrink like this cheaper type after washing. You 'will' sweat a lot in this heavy weight Gi, especially in the summer, so I would try a light weight Gi if possible. The Fuji Gi sizes are much more accurate. This Gi was too big for me and then shrunk a lot after washing. Always wash any Gi in cold water only and hang dry...no machine dry. Look on the name brand Gi size charts for the right fit. I'm 5'-7" 155lbs and an A2 Fuji Gi is perfect for me. The tops of this type of Gi can be a bit long (more like a Judo Gi), so its worth spending around $90 for a Fuji or Venum, I've been much happier with those two brands. Cheaper generic Gi's don't fit well and shrink...big time. Good luck
